Hell Froze Over
looked at them with the blank look she had perfected while she was in school to not let the bullies know they were bothering her.
    “I am fine, everything is fine, I just had someone break into my apartment. The police were called and they are handling it. There is really nothing to be done, I am sure my landlady will have the lock fixed today. So, everything is under control,” Boo said calmly and politely.
    Kink’s eyes narrowed and he obviously was biting back some retort he wanted to give her. She was impressed when he said calmly, “Was anything stolen?”
    Boo shook her head. “Nope, nothing.”
    The policeman who had followed her out interrupted. “Ma’am? They are wrapping up, there is not much that can be saved, I would suggest you stay somewhere else for tonight and then call someone to have all of the broken stuff hauled off.”
    Boo wanted the earth to open and swallow her up, because the tension went from zero to sixty in just that second. Shit, she didn’t want to have to tell them this, they would feel sorry for her and try to fix everything like they normally did. The difference was she didn’t want them to fix anything for her. She was not a charity case, and she already knew they thought they needed to take care of her out of some misplaced sense of obligation, they had probably gotten from Bic. Boo needed to come to terms with the fact she would always be a loner.
    “Excuse me?” Kink said, once again deceptively calm. The officer obviously was a rookie of some sort because he actually replied to him.
    “Well yeah, the place is totaled as I am sure Ms. Bromp has told you. Everything was destroyed, the only thing I think she can salvage is maybe some things in her bathroom,” the officer said and then eagerly went that extra bit to make sure her life sucked even more. “And the landlady is saying it could take a week or more to get the door changed.”
    She heard Kink growl, literally growl when he said, “The fuck?”
    Magnum stepped forward and held out a card to the officer. “Thank you, officer, if you need anything please contact this number. Ms. Bromp will be staying with us from now on.”
    Boo opened her mouth to protest, but Kink’s hand on her arm began propelling her into her building, she could feel Magnum following as the rest of the group kinda backed up. They reached the stairs and he pulled her behind him as he moved up to the landing before seeing the door where all the activity was and moved there. They entered her trashed apartment and Kink growled again. She wasn’t sure what that meant because she was pretty sure in the two years she had known Kink, she had only seen him joking and laughing. He was easygoing and seemed to not get worked up about much, so she didn’t know how to take this.
    Magnum was silent, but then she expected that, he was a little more intense and brooding. She found both of these men extremely attractive, and there was no way she could describe it, because the rest of the Ops were the same way, all sexy in their own right, especially because they were bikers. Boo had long figured the bad boy gruff hot biker was a huge draw for women. She couldn’t blame the women, she had a hard time resisting them as well.
    “You have got to be kidding me,” Kink snapped and let her arm go as he and Magnum wandered through the destruction in her apartment, taking it all in, as the men from the police department packed up their stuff.
    Finally, the last of the police were at her door and the first officer who had arrived and been so kind said, “Ma’am,” he said softly. “We are done here, if you think of anything that will be helpful, just call.”
    Boo nodded distractedly as she tried to keep track of the guys. Magnum had moved back into her bedroom and Kink was in her kitchen. She needed to get them out of here so she could see if there was anything she could salvage.
    After the police were finally gone, she decided to take matters into her own hands,
